    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity. The Chairperson of the Committee on Devolution and Intergovernmental Relations and the Senator for Laikipia County has travelled with another delegation out of the country. I, therefore, welcome the MCAs and staff members from Laikipia County on his behalf. The MCAs are the primary source of oversight in our counties, and I hope they will learn a lot. One of the things that this House has been debating and considering is the County Wards Development Equalisation Bill, 2018, to ensure that the MCAs have the ability to do their oversight and prioritize the development agenda at the county level. I, therefore, hope that they will find time to learn about that Bill as well as to give their insights, because we will be considering amendments to that Bill. Finally, I welcome all students from various schools that you mentioned in your Communication. I wish them fruitful discussions and learning. We look up to them to be part of the leadership in this country in future."
